G15 Cube Servo

[yonghui]

ya, most probably is the wire problem with one of the servo, or one of the connector on one of the servo is not connecting properly and cause the signal or power do not reach the subsequent servo. try to check by rearranging the servo and identify which is the bad one.

Sorry for late response. Was busy on other things.
I'm still having problem with the one cube servo. Other 3 works fine.
When I try to perform factory reset, the light did not blink 4 times. No blink at all.

I have submitted my problem via Cytron support page also today. Hope to receive some help.

If the G15 servo did not blink 4 times, that means:

1. the ID in the code is not similar to the G15 servo

2. the G15 servo communicates at a different baud rate

To resolve problem 1, you can use 0xFE as the ID (broadcast ID, all G15 servo's will respond to this ID other than the ID set), if it blinks 4 times after you run the code, that means you have managed to commmunicate with the servo and factory reset it.

If the 1st solution doesn't work, you can use the broadcast ID (0xFE) as the ID in the code and change the baud rate (9600-500000 bps)in the code until you get a response from the G15 servo (in this case, 4 blinks).

Hope this helps. :v

Hello,

anybody know coding to show the angle for G15 servo?

thanks

Hi Sha,
pls refer the wiki page below
https://code.google.com/p/cytron-g15-shield/wiki/GetPos

get the position of the servo and covert it to angle if needed.
then u can show it on the display panel you use.

oooo

thanks

how i want to display it using LCD4884?

Thanks

[yonghui]

for LCD u will need to read more about the LCD.
when u get the value, then u will need to convert it to a string array 1st then only display it using the available function.

i am not sure which LCD, and which library you are using.

Hi everyone.
How do i know the G15 still in good condition? Tried everything (setled, reset factory), no response at all. Im using SK40C with PIC16F887

Hi everyone.

Can help to verify a few things:
- Is the program being loaded to PIC16F887 and it the code is running?
- Is there is power for the G15 and is it sufficient?

A photo of the hardware setup and the sample code you use should be helpful.
